Specific Uses
Diplomacy
Diplomacy is used specifically when a character tries to use reason to convince others to agree with him.
The base DC for the check is 25. Succeeding this check means that the characters' dispositions shift one category in the direction the negotiator wishes. For every additional 10 points that the negotiator's check exceeds this DC, the character's dispositions shift an additional category.
Bluff
Bluff is used when a negotiator is trying to convince other characters of a lie. The negotiator's check is opposed by the other characters' Negotiate(Sense Motive) checks.
The negotiator takes the following modifiers to his check depending on the veracity of his bluff.
| Circumstance | Negotiate mod |
|---|---|
| Target is Infatuated | +10 |
| Target gains from the information | +5 |
| Target isn't affected one way or the other | +0 |
| The target is put at slight personal risk | -5 |
| The target is put at great personal risk | -10 |
If the targets succeed their Negotiate(Sense Motive) checks, they do not believe the bluff and become Unfriendly (or lower if that was their original state). If the targets succeed by 5 or more, they realize the negotiator's intention behind them believing the bluff.
